Job Description
WPIX is seeking a creative storyteller with a sharp eye for visuals and a passion for bringing ideas to life through motion. This role sits at the intersection of videography, editing, and digital strategy. The perfect candidate is someone who thrives on variety and wants to produce work that moves people.
You'll be hands-on in every stage of production, from concept development to shooting, editing, and final delivery. Our projects range from creative deep-dives and branded campaigns to breaking news. You'll collaborate closely with producers, clients, and creative teams to shape stories that resonate.
If you're equally confident behind the camera and in the editing suite, and you love fast paced, collaborative environments where creativity and problem-solving go hand in hand, this is the role for you.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
• Plan, capture, and edit branded, editorial, and promotional content for a range of clients and platforms.
• Collaborate with producers, clients, and creative directors to develop ideas that fit both the brand voice and the target audience.
• Operate a range of equipment including mirrorless and ENG-style cameras, drones, gimbals, and action cameras (DJI, GoPro, etc.).
• Craft stories in the edit - using pacing, rhythm, sound design, and visual polish to create emotion and engagement.
• Handle projects end-to-end, including pre-production planning, shooting, editing, color correction, and delivery.
• Adapt content for various aspect ratios and platforms, ensuring videos are optimized for social feeds like Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and broadcast.
REQUIREMENTS:
• Proven professional experience in videography, editing, and digital content creation.
• Willingness to slide schedule for certain shoots
• Bachelor's degree or 3-5 year with broadcast experience
• Experience in major market productions
• Ability to work under tight deadlines while maintaining quality and attention to detail
• FAA Part 107 certification or drone experience preferred, along with familiarity with stabilization tools like gimbals or Steadicams.
